I woke up today with Claire in a somekind of prison. This prison sucks balls. Well every prison do sucks. But this one sucks balls. It is really frickin' filthy inside and outside, it smells too. A dead body - corpse type smell. It just smells really bad. All rooms got electronic door locks that can only be open through a passcode. I don't know why, but when we woke up, all bars are open and no one is here. Only me and Claire. I'm trying not to get a heart attack or somekind like that. So, we walk around and find a way out. We were really deep inside, so we pass through lots of doors and somekind of control panel thing. We keep walking inspecting every corridors, back and fourth. 

After about 30 minutes of looking a way out, we got into a room that has a deadbody hanged on the ceiling! And it is super duper nasty. Few moments later, Claire realized that it is a body of a somekind of guard. We got no idea how the heck that it can be hanged right there. Yuck. It smells too. Then, I saw something hanging in front of his vest. It is a chain full of keys. I thought it will unlock some doors that will lead us to the exit. 

Because he was hanged right on our eye level, so it is easy to take the keys out. So, I took it off and save it in my pocket. After I took the keys out, Claire found a gun and a flashlight. Because Moira don't do firearms, so she gave the gun and took the flashlight.

There's a door on our front right that is unlocked. We aren't so convinced to get into that room. So we were considering to get back and look for another way out. Suddenly, the door is locked by someone from the outside! We are so damn shocked! It turns out that we are not alone.  On their wrists a bracelet was installed, through which a female known as the "Overseer" directs them around the prison and say poetry-like quotes.

Our bracelet changes color everytime our feeling changes. It is green when we feel okay. And it turns red when we feel fear. I don't know what it is for. But the "Overseer" talked to us through the bracelet. And what is surprising, the dead guard suddenly woke up and walk slowly through us. I asked him "Are you okay sir?" But he didn't answer me. He just keep walking and suddenly attacked us! So without any doubt, I shot him right in the chest. I was scared as hell. 

And then the "Overseer" talked again like this "Surprise, surprise! There will be more. Better be alarmed."

We was like "WHAT THE F**K IS THAT?!?!?!

With the face full of anger and fury, we open the door and go on.

It turns out, the door was the exit door! And now we were at a somekind of a border between the prison and somekind of a neighbourhood.

The "Overseer" talked to us again. "Go to Wossek. You will find some other "friends"" 

We were really confused what did she meant with other "friends".  Well there is only one way to find out. Let's go to Wossek. 

We walked quite far from the border to Wossek. About 5 kilometers I believe. It was really tiring. We looked like hell. We smells really bad, our body is so dirty. We were so damn tired and thirsty. But we were still about 500 meters to Wossek, so we fight our own body and go to Wossek. But it felt like 500 kilos. Oh my god sake! Finally we reached Wossek. 

But there was no one outside...

We were so frickin' confused. But then, Claire heard a sound from a house upfront. So we got there and there were some "friends" that the "Overseer" told us before. They are Neil, Gabriel, and Pedro. Gabriel is a pilot from Terrasave that lost contact and landed here with Neil and Pedro. They landed here because they ran out of fuel, and leaky battery. So we had a rest, drink some beer and quick-clean ourself up.

Gabriel got an idea to get out from Wossek using the helicopter. But it has no fuel and a replacement battery. So, Claire and I also Pedro go for some fuel and look for a replacement battery. We were so lucky! There is a fuel storage behind the house. But we still has no battery. So we look for one.

We examine every house that we passed. And then cha ching!!! Battery is right in front of us! We were so happy, we can go out of this damn Wossek thing. But, the "Overseer" talked to us again. "Not so fast sweetheart."

Suddenly the siren rang super super loud and called all of the monsters of the undead. Not just like an ordinary undead that looks like zombies in movies, these are crazy! They bring sharp things that will slice us and kill us immediately! That was stupidly scary. So, we get back to the house, bar the door, and keep shooting.

Claire stopped the siren by cutting the power from the house. Because if the siren keep ringing, we will call more of the undead. After some serious shooting, no more undead that came after us. But suddenly Pedro's bracelet became red. And Pedro looks like that he is afraid of something. 

Turns out, Pedro become one of them!!! We was shocked. And the "Overseer" talked. "Fear can kill you. Like your friend." 

We was like "WHAT IS THIS F**KIN SH*T?!?!?!?!?!"

So without no doubt, we shot Pedro. And he was now dead.

We were so shocked after what just happened. We also fear that we will be one of them too. Like Pedro. So we went to the helicopter landings, juice 'em up install the battery and we are good to go!

We flew quite high. With full of happiness that we can get out of that frickin' sucks ballz place, suddenly the "Overseer" talked to us. "Not so fast, sweety!" And as predicted, she took down the helicopter. We crushed into a building. But all 3 of us survived. 

We were splitting to look for different ways. But we never meet Neil after we split up. So we were keep going until we found a tower. That we found out, a radio tower. So we went to the top floor of the building and made a S.O.S radio broadcast. In that time, Claire also found out that we are on an island that is really far away from other lands. After knowin out that no one receive the radio broadcast, we were really hopeless.

But, not until we met a "Little Miss". Her name is Natalia Korda. She was also a victim of the T-Phobos project. Same with us. We were injected by somekind of virus, that can turn us into monsters if we are in fear. But, this "Little Miss". Had a really amazing gift. She can feel enemy presence nearby. That helped us a lot!
